This part just sends me: “Someone just drew a line…..I’m a very artistic person.” Just the insult of talking about another country’s borders and physical integrity this way with the PM sitting right there trying not to leap out of his chair. It’s just indecent.

The Prime Minister of a sovereign country came to the United States today and actually had to tell the President of the United States - to his face - that his sovereign country wasn’t for sale. And would never be for sale. That actually happened today.

If Kamala Harris—a Black and Southeast Asian woman—were president during this level of economic chaos, inflation, and global instability, Republicans would be screaming for impeachment hourly. Trump gets a pass because he’s a white man throwing tantrums for their team.

When the President of the United States says he doesn’t know if he should uphold the Constitution, it should be a searing red line for every American. If you let him ignore ANY aspect of the Constitution you embolden him to ignore more of it, including the parts that secure YOUR freedoms & rights.

When you look at the statements that were edited out of Trump’s Meet the Press interview that aired on TV, it is pretty rich that he’s suing 60 Minutes over edits to Harris. These are the parts that weren’t shown on air. meidasnews.com/news/what-tr...

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."
